I saw this in my Range Magazine and think it does a great job of summing things up.

Not Beach at Normandy, but perhaps Seelow Heights during battle for Berlin. I agree, today Western society is pathetically weak, like men no longer have testosterone.

Audie Murphy, U.S. Army, was only 18 years old when he was involved in the WW II fighting for which he was awarded the Medal of Honor.

Yeah. I was thinking the same thing. I don't doubt that there were 18 year olds who fought in the Russian army during the counter attack against the German Whermacht. But none stormed the beaches at Normandy.

He also earned the silver star in a separate engagement.

The 19, 20, 21+ year olds that I used to supervise at work have the maturity and mentality of 8 year olds. Just pathetic. I had a 24 y/o worker come to me and tell me he was upset and wanted to go home early. I asked him what was the problem. "Those guys are talking smack about my favorite comic book superhero, and I can't take it." I told him to grow up and get back to work.

In comparison, my son bought his house at age 24. Proud of that boy!
